Really - you guys didn't like it? I thought it was a well made movie. This movie won't win the Filmware award for best movie (not even nominated

) but it's worth a watch.
The delicate psyche of the common person has been depicted very well - portraying the well meaning but blind
faith we humans posses, that is so easily manipulated by unscrouplous elements in the name of religon.
I agree, the monkey part didn't fit in perfectly and it jumbled the climax - and seemed like an after thought.
Atul Kulkarni was in his element as the half-wit Gobar, and so was Divya Dutta - she works great in off-beat roles like this.
P.K. Dubey held his own ground as the inspector.
Rishi Kapoor didn't have a big role but he was great in every scene.
Sonam has improved tremendously since Saawariya - I think she'll do good in understaded roles rather than a full-on glamorous appearance.
Abhishek did what had to do. He wasn't bad at all - compared to what the poor chap had to do in Drona.
Aditi Rao, as the unmarried aunt, was good too.
I don't like Amitabh making teeny
special appearances in any movie he can. That kind of ruined it along with the monkey!
And with that I think I've just written my first-ish review (of sorts) in this thread.!
Forgot -> good songs.
